Catalytic, Enantioselective Hetero-diels-alder Reactions of Aldehydes

Catalytic hetero-ene reactions of 5-methyleneoxazolines: highly enantioselective synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted oxazole derivatives.

An efficient catalytic asymmetric hetero-ene reaction of 5-methyleneoxazolines with 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds (including α-ketoesters and glyoxal derivatives) was realized using Ni(II)-N,N'-dioxide complexes as the catalysts. It provides a rapid, high yielding (up to 99%) route for the preparation of 2,5-disubstituted oxazole derivatives in a highly enantioenriched form (up to >99% ee) under mil...

Catalytic, enantioselective bifunctional inverse electron demand hetero-Diels-Alder reactions of ketene enolates and o-benzoquinone diimides.

In this Communication, we report a system in which an achiral Lewis acid (activating the diene) works in concert with a chiral nucleophile (dienophile) to effect the first highly enantio- and regioselective catalytic inverse electron demand Diels-Alder [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction to form biologically active quinoxalinones from ketene enolates and o-benzoquinone diimides in good to excellent ...

Catalytic Asymmetric Inverse-Electron-Demand Hetero-Diels-Alder Reactions.

In this review, the recent developments in catalytic asymmetric inverse-electron-demand hetero-Diels-Alder reaction, which is recognized as one of the most powerful routes to construct highly functionalized and enantioenriched six-membered heterocycles, are described. The article is organized on the basis of different kinds of electron-deficient heterodienes, including α,β-unsaturated ketones/a...
